In the next day or so, you are going to hear the mainstream media spew out tons of bilge about the casualties of the sequester. Their dialog is designed by the elites to instill fear, uncertainly and doubt in the hearts and minds of us common folk. Something that the big media hucksters have become very proficient in doing, as proven by their false dialog about the healthcare debate that made sure that our country will not get universal healthcare, but will protect the interests of corporations that profit from the status quo.

They are now telling us things like:

The sequester's automatic budget cuts will cause airport control towers to go unmanned, which possibly, maybe, could be, perhaps cause an accident that would endanger the traveling public.

The sequester's automatic budget cuts will debilitate our military, leaving them unable to defend our country which possibly, maybe, could be, perhaps cause our country to be invaded by a combination of World War II Nazis and Arab pro-wrestlers.

The sequester's automatic budget cuts may debilitate our public health system which possibly, maybe, could be, perhaps cause the food in many establishments to harbor even more roaches, mouse droppings and old cigarette butts than they do now. YUM!

The sequester's automatic budget cuts will cause an immediate cut in our system of healthcare for all which......Oops, sorry about that. Only countries that put their citizens' well being before corporate profits have that!

The sequester's automatic budget cuts will have an immediate effect on our educational system which possibly, maybe, could be, perhaps cause our children to become the start of a nation of illiterates. Oops.... the GOP has tried to do that already with budget cuts that will create newer, more ignorant (if that's possible) Republican voters.

The bottom line is that there is a concerted effort by the elites who, by virtue of their massive campaign contributions form the unelected, but real government of our country to use the very temporary sequester to panic us little folk into giving up hard fought, established programs that they cynically refer to as “entitlements.” Not big stuff, just little things like the Social Security and Medicare that the GOP wanted to kill for years! Let's not allow a bogus hyped-up “crisis” to panic us into giving it to them and let's warn Democrats that want to go that route that they will be primaried and alternative parties will spring up that really represent us!

Have you noticed that there's no one on Talk Radio who speaks for John and Jane Q. Public? I want to change that situation. When I go into the studio and get on the air, I say the things that you've always wanted to say. The big corporate interests have their lobbyists, I want to be your voice. Just think of me as your guy fighting for your interests.
